Since Covid, some anti-establishment sceptics have been drawn to question whether weather is being manipulated, cancer treatment should be rejected and pesticides should be banned. This is unhelpful, argues Ben Pile.
The Green Blob has got itself a "Special Representative for Nature" who will "put climate and nature at the heart of our foreign policy". Good grief, says Ben Pile. Don't we have any real external threats to deal with?
China is fooling David Lammy when it tells him we have a "shared interest" in a "global green energy transition". In the decade to 2022, China's emissions increased by 17%, while ours fell by 35%. Shared interest?
A new report from the "Energy Crisis Commission" calls for a move way from fossil fuels, somehow missing that this is what's driving the energy crisis, says Ben Pile. That's because the "Commission" is pure Green Blob.
The Climate Change Committee has appointed Emma Pinchbeck as its new CEO – a 37 year-old humanities graduate with no experience in the energy industry except lobbying. Can the calibre go any lower, asks Ben Pile.
The fount of green propaganda continues to flow, with two new reports from the Green Alliance purporting to link health problems and climate change. Ben Pile reads them so you don't have to and highlights the worst bits.
In place of cheap, reliable energy, Ed Miliband has been busy summoning up green unicorns with taxpayers' cash, says Ben Pile. The latest non-solutions are carbon capture and flywheels. No, they aren't going to work.
As Labour prepares to deliver a Net Zero coup de grâce to the industries that made Britain, there are signs of workers beginning to organise their own defence. But alas, it's doomed to fail, says Ben Pile.
The latest green conspiracy theory is that a £4m donation to Labour allowed Big Oil to get its woman appointed as "climate envoy". But the truth is the opposite, says Ben Pile: it's Big Green that is calling the shots.
Ed Miliband rhetorically bounced around the podium like a geek who'd missed his meds. But as the fabled 'green jobs' evaporate in the face of China's coal-driven industry, the unions are growing restive, says Ben Pile.
